Did you get report in the end.
-
No she didn’t send it, I got word back cpl weeks later only got 6 points for DL and 10 for standard mobility gutted as I had DL until February wen it ran out, Iv put in a mandatory reconsideration but don’t hold out much hope, probably be the long rd to appeal.
-
So you lost out thats really bad. I think it's luck of the draw. Depends on the assessor you get i think I'm on ESA right now and have been for many years when I go for my assessment I think it's every two years I can get a nice asseir who understands my condition or one who has no idea about uncontrolled epilepsy. The last assesment I had for esa the lady had a cousin who had a similar condition to mine. So we chatted about it and that was it. The whole thing lasted 15 minutes. I just got lucky.
-
Oh I think your definitely right, im just hoping things can change and I will get my benefit back, but as I sd it could be a long fight lol
-
I’m at least grateful I got something even though it was standard mobility, I’m hoping I can get that changed as amongst other ailments I’m waiting on 2 knee replacements so any kind of movement is a nightmare.
-
@Lou67 that's what I got 10 for mobility and 6 for daily living but I appealed and the judge has made a provisional decision to give me the extre 2 points for daily living but ove been waiting a year and a half it's a nightmare
-
Hi@paulb123 yes I saw your post the other day and I wished you well it gave me a bit of hope, so thank you.
-
It's such a long drawn out process
-
@Lou67 If surgery is planned which might improve your condition it may be why they awarded standard as they think your condition will improve.
-
Hi@ Cressida, My surgery isn’t planned yet, I need to loose a bit of weight before I can get it, Iv put over 3 stone on in the past cpl of year, it’s really getting me down I used to never be off my feet now I’m hardly able to do much at all. Thanks take care.

@Brumboy68 some of them can be rude on phone one had my partner in tears

Postman' arrived . Went to porch. Thought he hadn't been. Went to go shopping and their was a big brown envelope from Belfast. The hairs on my neck stood up. My kness trembled hands shook. Time to sit down, and I opened it, glasses on and reading began two points here two points here there even a kid could realise that the daily living could only reach six. To be expected so not surorised. Next mobility saw this gorgeously shaped tick in the fisrt question about planning a journey in the box F. A great big smile and relief overcame my body finally the enhanced mobility rate. So happy ijust hope the dwp man agrees. Must also admit that the assessor was spot on with her report . I criticized her in an earlier post and I was completely wrong to do that and I also moaned about the length it might take about getting the medical report once again I was wrong. I shouldn't doubt people I guess. But I am so happy about the award about the award of 12 points they never change their mind do they.
